IvanOverdrive, (edited ) to memes in Japan is living in the future that the 1990s dreamed of.

Fax machines are definitely being phased out.

Floppy disks? How old is this meme? In the nearly twenty years I’ve been in Japan, I’ve never even seen a floppy disk.

Paper filing is an option if you want it.

And as for cash, electronic payments have really taken off in the last year. I still value my privacy though. So I stick it out in the slow line up.

All in all, there’s a kernel of truth to the meme. What the outside sees as a Blade Runner society drenched in neon, the reality is more “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” kinda place.

IvanOverdrive, to asklemmy in What's a sci-fi or fantasy book or series that you want to see adapted as a movie/television series?

I came here to say Chronicles of Amber. Damn, I thought I was the last fan left.

Disco was hot garbage except for that one episode where they ran out of budget and told a decent groundhog day story. Pike carried me through the second season though. And the only interesting character was the spidey-sense alien dude. Didn’t bother with season 3.

Picard. Well… I only lasted ten minutes into the first episode. Noped out when the motorbike helmet Romulan ninja killed the roommate with a knife. Guess they couldn’t afford stun mode on a phaser or something.

Strange New Worlds is great. I’d rank it better than Voyager but not quite original series quality. Not yet anyway. And when Jack Quaid popped out the other side of the portal, that’s when I thought I’d give Lower Decks a chance.

How dare you try to bridle unbridled capitalism

IvanOverdrive, to upliftingnews in Denver experimented with giving people $1,000 a month. It reduced homelessness and increased full-time employment, a study found.

Great that it worked and all, but how are we supposed to punish the poor if we just give them money?
